Gary Numan is a British New Wave singer who was popular in the 80's.

Please... if this is true it would be reallydissapoibting. No synth score for this. Wonder Woman was great so if hans scores the sequel he should use orchestra

look up the song “Cars” on youtube. very popular 80’s song and it was in GTA: Vice City as well. I think Flash FM.

Why Brent? We saw how Rupert Gregson Williams used Hans Zimmers theme which fit perfectly and great. And of course composed his own music. Hans Zimmer also has a history of doing really great things with superhero movies.. Don't know who this other guy is but I am sure Hans Zimmer will do the themes.

It's dumb, Josiah because:

1. Film scores with modern band involvement have a very spotty history. I think Transformers 2 and Hidden Figures mostly managed to make the concept work. However, on the other side you have TASM2 and TF4 which were only made worse by the involvement of bands.

2. This news makes the score sound like it will be a co-composing between the Hans and Gary, making it likely to be a synth score which doesn't really work for a mythical character like Wonder Woman.

3. People enjoyed Rupert Gregson's attempt at a super hero score, so to seem him replaced already on the first sequel (while the themes may be continued), is disappointing.

Hans has a history of subverting expectations on scores in groundbreaking ways. Sherlock Holmes is the best example; past Sherlock Holmes productions featured Victorian chamber music to accompany the score, but Hans had his own vision and wrote a score featuring broken pianos and instruments. And it’s certainly one of his most well known works today!

...

2018-07-09 20:39:26

Yes but I wish zimmer would move away from synths a bit. I love hisborchestral scores and wish he did one now and again.

Josiah

2018-07-10 18:52:47

@superultramegaa

I see your point about co composing with a band and it can make it worst in a way of it being a historic movie.

But with TASM 2 the score was absolutely amazing even with the whole band concept. Everything fit so well in the movie and it was a badass score

Now I doubt Hans Zimmer will put in synths if it doesn't go well with the movie. A lot of his composing limitations depends on the movie director which Hans Zimmer composes the best to the directors wishes for the movie. regardless if it goes well to the movie or not.

Omar

2018-08-07 02:16:42

Patty Jenkins has been wanting Hans for even the first movie, so I guess he finally gave in

Although I’m waiting for an official confirmation of this before jumping to conclusions; this would be interesting if true. Considering DC’s track record of borrowing from Marvel, it’s possible that they trying to a retro type superhero film, ala Thor Ragnarok. It could definitely explain the ‘84 element.

If so, I would love to hear Hans tackle an 80’s throwback score much like how Mark Mothersbaugh tackled Thor, which is probably one of my favorite MCU scores. Does it fit WW? Probably not, but considering how sloppy the DCEU has become who honesty cares anymore?

yeah but it makes me a bit sad that zimmer does the retro 84 stuff and not the mor orchestral scores he used to do...

mpolonest123

2018-07-09 23:37:51

Look at it like a phase Zimmer’a going through. Every few years HZ tries to reinvent his style of music. Im sure we are going to get more “traditional” scores in the future. And don’t forget, in the past few years we got Kung Fu Panda 3, BvS, Interstellar, Woman in Gold, and Hidden Figures. Orchestral Zimmer hasn’t gone anywhere... ;-)

(Plus Lion King and X-MEN are next year)

mpolonest123

2018-07-10 02:00:18

And call it personal preference but I love Zimmer’s electronic style. Chappie, TASM2, The Fan, and even portions of Blade Runner and Inferno work extremely well for me. It’s the execution of certain scores (Inferno, Dunkirk) that don’t work 100%.

Mephariel

2018-07-10 03:26:21

I am actually very interested in a Hans throwback score, whether it is going to be orchestrated or not.

I agree that orchestral Zimmer hasn't gone anywhere. Did people forget that Blue Planet II just came out? That was one of my favorite scores of the year and IFMCA nominated that score for documentary score of the year. I just don't think Zimmer is ever going to go back to doing 3-4 orchestral scores like King Arthur in one year. Looking at his next couple scores:

I heard about Rupert Gregson Williams confirmed to score for Aquaman movie. I think it's a good decision. WW soundtrack was LIT!!

I think someone like James Newton Howard would have been also great, but I love the fact that Rupert is doing it. His Wonder Woman score was really great and I hope he keeps the same level.

Edmund Meinerts

2018-03-08 12:46:31

JNH would have been awesome (he does great with watery subjects) but he's already got two massive scores lined up for the rest of this year, the Fantastic Beasts sequel and Disney's Nutcracker, so doubt he would have found the time.

I'm OK with Rupert. Not an amazing choice but he does have what I consider to be the DCEU's best score under his belt (Justice League is good music, but it was the *wrong* score for this universe, and I'm just not that big a fan of Zimmer/JXL's vision for Superman, complete score or no). Hopefully Aquaman will give Rupert a chance to do his own thing a bit more, since for WW he was in the shadow of Zimmer's theme to a degree, and while he did a good job with it, the score ended up with a bit of a split personality.

@Felix I'm Agree With You 100%!

@JBSO99 I think you are right about James Newton Howard is a good choice too. Me too, I hope he keeps the same level too.

2018-03-08 15:01:44

@Edmund Meinerts Your points are right, but I agree with your opinion about DCEU's best score. But I was not impressed about Justice League Score by Danny Elfman, but it's been the wrong score for this universe I have seen a lot people said Danny Elfman was a jerk person because he throw away with Junkie XL's music for Justice League. I was wondering what if Junkie XL, will have a Rejected score from The Justice League score still or hold for later in the future maybe one day we will hear his unreleased tracks. I was not happy to hear about Junkie XL replaced by Danny Elfman, but I had a feeling about Danny Elfman seem rushed for editing and wrong titles for Justice League score that's not how Justice League Logo is not good enough. My opinion about Danny Elfman always changes his music style between by Action movies & Superhero movies with Downtempo, Electronic or different kind of Instruments in the past.

This score just makes me think of Zimmer and Transformers. At least with the Transformers films, you get a little bit of Jablonsky's style with the complex themes, and the fast paced strings and choir with bursts of horns. You can still connect Transformers with Steamboy. Here, I don't even know what Rupert's style is supposed to be. Pretty aesthetic, and Pirates of the Caribbean/Prince of Egypt sounding composition for the island, and Transformers for the action?

I'm not even sure what he's going to do with Aquaman. Is he just going to imitate Pirates of the Caribbean the entire time? Because it's water based? I feel like a more stylized composer would work for Aquaman like JNH, Benjamin Wallfisch, or even Geoff Zanelli if they want the RCP feel. Rupert Gregson-Williams just feels like another Brian Tyler to me. Functional, somewhat memorable, but nothing we haven't heard before.

Jean-Luc

2018-03-08 17:29:55

@superultramegaa Sounds interesting to me. I don't know how sure about if Rupert Gregson Williams decide to make a new theme for Aquaman's theme or he could be same level like he did with the Wonder Woman score. I think another composer like Steve Jablonsky should join superhero movies, but funny to me He only works with Michael Bay and Peter Berg for action movies mostly. My opinion about Steve Jablonsky seem comfortable around working with Michael Bay often. But I just want to see Steve Jablonsky try to join superhero movies it's will be interesting. He has always perfected for Transformers film series.

Isn't it funny how embarassingly neoliberalist Hans Zimmer is nowadays? Back in the 1990s he was a socially conscious activist. Next - what up - a Trump fanfare, A Paul Ryan shame boogie. Nothing would be surprising for this corporate version of a composer I used to love.

Wow. How cool is it that Howe who worked on this has also scored "Professor Marston & The Wonder Woman". And from the reviews it looks like his debut score for mainstream movies is spot on. Can't wait to listen to it.

For whatever reason the electric cello isn't mixed into the track which makes me wonder if it's an insert...

This track looks like many others that Powell did in his old action scores.The ending remember The Last Samurai and The Thin The Red Line.

Ahmad

2017-09-10 03:21:55

When Wonder Woman's Wrath came out in the movie, I thought the sound design at 1:34 sounded familiar. Turns out, it also in "The Logic Of Tyrants" (at 0:13) from Inferno. Very sneaky, Andrew Kawczynski!

Ahmad

Oops! Wasn't meant to post it under this topic.

Ahmad - good catch! I could definitely be wrong about this, but I think that effect originated in MoS as the theme/motif (for lack of a better term) for the World Engine.

Now that the album is out there I can easily say that I love this score. Definitely my 2nd favorite behind MoS.

Musically, much of it has that "Last Samurai/Transformers" power anthem style (with one of the themes sounding like King Arthur) but with RGW's string writing style as opposed to the bass heavy approach of those scores. The WW cello theme isn't used a whole lot, but when it gets some screen time it feels earned, and steals the show. The villain material is the weakest part, but instrumentally is pretty cool with the incorporation of the cimbalom (it reminds me slightly of Sherlock at points)

Overall, easily one of the best scores so far this year.

If anyone wants to custom improve this album; just swap out the Sia song for Tina Guo's cover. It makes the album end off on a much better note ;-)

PeterMusic

2017-05-26 20:35:28

I agree - why didn't they include Tina's version of the theme . More of the Zimmer would have made the score much effective

theeaglesfan005

@ mpolonest123 except the Sia song is played during the end credits

JBSO99

2017-05-27 14:00:40

After listening to it the first time I thought this was a very good Zimmer score, but suddenly realized it was Rupert Gregson-Williams and that's a very good thing because he has been able to bring this Zimmer classic sound but with his own voice, as they said above here, with Last Samurai-like anthems and also remind me a bit of the second half of Hacksaw Ridge score, and that's great.I specially liked No Man's Land, Wrath of Wonder Woman, Hell Hath No Fury and Lightning Strikes (well, in general, the second half is pretty awesome with many action heroic themes).Cannot wait to hear it in the context of the movie.

JBSO99

2017-05-27 14:10:46

I also love the appearence of the theme in the end of Trafalgar Celebartion. Does anybody know what Action Reaction exactly is? It sounds a bit like a remix from the main theme but it could also be a part of the movie soundtrack. i don't know but it sounds cool.

Iamtommie

2017-05-27 15:54:25

Maybe it's the end credits after the song

@ JBSO99 It's the first part of the end credits

2017-05-30 23:52:36

Actually the end of Trafalgar Celebration is the start of the end credits.. then it's Action Reaction

Kalvin Koskela

2017-05-31 00:06:16

So "To Be Human" will be at the end of the end credits?

JBSO99

2017-06-01 16:00:07

So the end credits are the end of Trafalgar Ceebration, Action Reaction and then the Sia song? It would be better if the didn't introduce the song and put the Tina Guo cover of the main theme, but sadly that won't happen.

mpolonest123

2017-06-01 16:28:19

To be fair, the Tina Guo cover is really based on Is She With You, meaning it kind of has some themes/elements from BVS (Batman's theme and Lex's chords) that wouldn't make sense in context. Still an awesome song though...

GR7

2017-06-08 15:34:23

I like the score too. Action Reaction is really nice and has an interesting "JXL Mad Max" vibe i'd say.

MK

2017-07-05 21:05:58

@PeterMusic because Tina's version is shit and a fan-production. Do not mess soundtracks with unofficial material please, thanks.

so, do you have informations about the placement of theses tracks into the score ?

GRZ

2017-06-09 11:48:07

I'd need to watch the movie again to answer precisely, sry. ''Sous les ponts de Paris'' must be placed between No Man's Land and Fausta IMO

theeaglesfan005

2017-06-10 02:07:32

1. Amazons Of Themyscira (0-3:43)2. History Lesson3. Amazons Of Themyscira (3:43-6:47)4. Angel On The Wing5. Ludendorff, Enough! (needs to be split.. first part is Steve's story.. the other is later on when this is said)6. Pain, Loss & Love7. No Man's Land8. Ludendorff, Enough! (second part would go here.. just not sure where to split it exactly)9. Fausta10. Wonder Woman's Wrath11. The God Of War12. We Are All To Blame13. Hell Hath No Fury14. Lightning Strikes15. Trafalgar Celebration16. Action Reaction (first 4 minutes or so are what's actually in the first part of the credits)17. To Be Human - Sia feat. Labrinth18. The beginning part of No Man's Land is played here in the credits

I have Trafalgar Celebration ending earlier than the album version bc that's how it is in the film

There are 4 parts to the credits as well:- 1st part being her theme (heard at the end of Trafalgar Celebration but is different in the actual credits from the album version)- Action Reaction (album version is longer edit than actual film version)- To Be Human- Score suite of some sort.. Seems to be a mix of No Man's Land, We Are All To Blame, and Lightning Strikes

So the finale is a combination of The God of War followed by We Are All To Blame, with more of the second half of The God of War, but then there are a few pieces I can't place.

There's a sort of alternate God of War theme when Diana is deflecting attacks with her lasso, and then a bit of Dr. Poison as her lab is blown up (not included in Fausta, it would seem).

Then it picks back up with Hell Hath No Fury and Lightning Strikes.

Anyone know anything about the missing pieces?

Actually according to my list God of War is not separated in halves at all. But after it comes some more additional material, before Hell Hath no Fury kicks in. And I think that was just left off the CD.

Yeah, it's something like that. I think this could really be a temp track because the drum rythm is almost the same, even with that strange sound after that. But I don't knw if it's intended or not. Maybe was just the typical drum rythm for an action scene. (I say this as no offense, because maybe this could be taken like that. I do like this drums but they are all very similar)

I loved the score for this movie. Second best of the DCEU under Man of Steel. I love the action music and theme for Dianna. He also uses the BVS just enough without getting boring. I wish the tracks weren't so long though. And if I'm correct, these are the themes I heard:

Avengers: Age of Ultron by Danny Elfman and Brian Tyler + Thor: The Dark World, TMNT and Power Rangers by Brian Tyler + The Last Samurai and Gladiator by Hans Zimer + Transformers by Steve Jablonsky + Many other scores similar at these = Awful. Can't understand why Patty took Rupert to write music for this movie and hope if she will film Wonder Woman 2 she'll take some other man, like John Powell, Thomas Newman, Alexandre Desplat or Howard Shore (and, if, of course he has the brains to do this). My score for this album is 2.5/10. And yes, Saturn for best score in 2018 Rupert will not get, I'm sure.

And its 15g so it can fit on any device without much memory restriction, hence my problems with this score. I cant take it all with me, so I have to chop it up and take out the best bits.

Really again on that Lego Batman score ? Still don't know what everyone is raving about. The score of wonder woman. Liked it, but nothing memorable. For best the more emotional tracks stand out the best like Pain, Loss & Love

Lorne is such a phenomenom itself not only he scores everything, but he appears in every debate... 8-)

This composing lacks on every important aspect that make a film music score so nessesary to the movie itself. This music has no evolution, has no entity or identity.

You only know that you are listening the "WONDER WOMAN" ost when you listen the references to the now mythical (Zimmer) theme from Batman v Superman. And when this theme sounds in this composing it feels totaly out of place, really a shame.

Beyond, this music could easily work with another summer blockbuster like Transformers, Pirates of the Caribbean or a generic action flick.For years I’ve been defending "DC" music works against the Marvel’s (MCU) soul-less soundtracks. And now after three awesome ost (DCEU) I have to eat my words.Is not necessary to talk about how great are Man of Steel, Batman v Superman and Suicide Squad (ok, this last less, but with a epic main theme). You only need to listen Rupert Gregson-Williams Wonder Woman, and then play one of this three compositions.

But the most disappointing thing, is the great missed oportunity with the Wonder Woman Theme last year. That exotic tone, that woman strengh that you feel when you are listen this epic theme. Here all this feelings are lost. At the end, another Zimmer-Like álbum. But like always in the "Zimmer-Like" longtime álbum library, not that height, not that quality, because if Wonder Woman’s score remebers us something, is one and clear truth: Only Exists One Hans Zimmer.

Just finished listening to the score, and this definitely helps calm my frustration after seeing Pirates last night. The score for Pirates was decent enough with some catchy tracks, but this is way better. Summer movies 2017 may not have the best movies lined up in terms of quality, but the scores for them all are really intriguing. Hoping the scores for The Mummy, Transformers, Spider-Man, and Dunkirk are all what I hope. Anyway I'm getting off track, the Wonder Woman score is very good and Rupert is really taking off as a quality composer.
